Night Care Assistant Jobs in Annan

Night care assistants provide waking or sleeping nights in a person’s own home so families can rest. In Annan and across Dumfries and Galloway you’ll support older people or adults with health needs through the night — offering reassurance, personal care, medication prompts and timely observations when needed. This work suits experienced carers who prefer continuity and quieter shifts and who want to work close to home in and around Annan and the surrounding towns.

New care jobs in the area are posted on PrimeCarers throughout the year.

PrimeCarers connects self-employed carers with families seeking night support. You choose the clients, the hours and the service area, set your own rates and take bookings that suit you. Many carers on the platform work regular nights or build a mixed roster of waking nights and day calls. Typical pay sits in the region of £15–£25 per hour depending on the client and the duties required.

Night work can mean staying awake through a shift to provide active support, or performing sleeping nights where you must be available and ready to help. Shifts vary and can be single nights or a regular pattern — you’ll discuss availability directly with the family before you accept a booking. If you’re used to agency life but want more choice over who you care for and when, PrimeCarers is built for that transition.

What PrimeCarers handles:

• We introduce you to families and help set up the contract.
• PrimeCarers manages invoicing and payments so you’re paid through the platform.
• Insurance is included while you’re working with clients found via PrimeCarers.

What we need from you: at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. You remain self-employed: you manage your own tax and National Insurance obligations.

Many carers who join live in or near Annan and cover nearby communities such as Gretna, Lockerbie, Silloth, Longtown, Lochmaben and Wigton. Applying takes minutes: create a profile, upload or request checks and references, and once verified your profile typically goes live within days. From there you can start receiving client introductions and choose the night roles you want to take.
